A New Addition


Yes, the girls and Michael have finally gotten to me. I have given in and we now have a new addition to the family. His name is Snickers. He is a six week old lab mix puppy. A family at our church had a dog that had a litter of 12 puppies. We have been talking about getting one for the girls but have not found one that we liked - until now. Here he is with one of his chew toys (his others are our hands, feet and anything else he can get his teeth in).

We picked him up Friday before heading up to Winston-Salem for a friend's wedding. He traveled well. Michael admitted that he could not believe that I was doing this. For those who do not know me, I am not really a dod person, but I informed him that he was too cute and the girls would never give up on this. Here is a picture of the girls with him at Mam-maw's. I just hope they stay as energetic and enthusiastic about him as they are now. This is supposed to be their responsibility. I know puppies and kids have something in common - they both have to grow up!!

He's so cute! When Emma saw him she pointed at the puppy and said "I want to go to that house." I told her it was Aunt Linda's house. She said "I want to go to Aunt Linna's and pet the puppy." I'll let you know Daniel's reaction when I show him.
